Banner has sold more than 23 million books. Xuxa, this time, is not the protagonist of the story itself. She plays Cinderella. The Feiurinha of the title, debuting in the cinema, is its daughter Sasha Meneghel. It was the daughter, moreover, who presented Pedro Bandeira to his mother. Xuxa said that at the insistence of author Pedro Bandeira he found that his daughter, Sasha, played the part. But she did not watch her daughter's recordings, because she was "very nervous". Beside the two, Luciano Szafir did not restrain his tears when watching the film for the first time. "I did not know how to handle it. When I saw footage of Sasha, I cried about five times," he confided. The actor, who plays the nearsighted and amusing prince of Cinderella, role of Xuxa, also lives a wanderer, father of Feiurinha, made by his heiress. "I wanted to do any scene next to Sasha, I could be a beggar, just to get through it," he said, who said he was impressed by his daughter's performance. "If she did not know, she would not believe that she had never done a job as an actress," he said proudly. The film marks the second partnership of Luciano and Xuxa in theaters.

Reception
Critical response
'Xuxa em O Mistrio de Feiurinha' received negative acclaim from critics, the film was mostly criticized for its script and bad performances, but some performances were praised by critics. On 'Cineweb', he gave the film a star, 'AdoroCinema', which assigns a weighted average score, has a score of 2.6 based on 11 reviews, having received three and a half stars out of five. The 'Filmow', gave three stars of five to the film.The 'Cineclick' wrote that "The performances are mediocre: Xuxa is always the same, the debutant Sasha tries, but luckily her role is small and it does not make much difference if she is bad or not, but Luciano Szafir is ashamed. exception is Zez Motta, who is a talented actress who even in the role of assistant of the writer, can illuminate, on the scene, even this poor movie. Tlio Moreira of 'Cinema com Rapadura', gave a first note to the film, defining it as "a legitimate case of cinematic nepotism", writing "Xuxa summons her patron of hots, singers, ex-boyfriends and celebrities of the moment to compose a mise-en-scne absolutely fond of content and absurdly worried about sizing the screen for the ego of personalities of the so-called Brazilian television culture. If the theme is interesting by showing the princess routine, its illusions and achievements after the "happily ever after," any chance of developing this context is useless after the first bouts of starry on the film." Mateus Nagime of 'Cineplayers', gave Xuxa in Feiurinha's, note 1.5 and a star, writing that "All celebrities play the role of "I'm here on the screen, do not demand talent." Sasha, however, overcomes all barriers. does not have a facial expression and much less talent, a characteristic that he inherited from his mother, who has already been caged with bad performances since 'Love Strange Love' (1982) three decades ago, or his father, who probably has one of the worst performances in film history in this film. completed his criticism by writing that "The scenes are poorly structured. In the first part it counts on a band of princess screaming and talking at the same time, trying to evoke laughs, whereas in the history of 'Feiurinha', Sasha Meneghel can not transmit the smallest charisma, besides being totally false to have still compassion with the witches who are to arrest for more than ten years.
Ana Martinelli of 'R7', describes the film as full of "cliches, obvious dialogues and repetitions" and says that "a poor resource was no longer enough, the princesses are no longer in their prime. justification for the writer to live on a ship is some sponsor's requirement. Author of the book 'O Fantstico Mistrio de Feiurinha', that was adapted for the cinema by Xuxa, the writer Pedro Bandeira affirmed to the newspaper 'Folha de S.Paulo' that Sasha - hots daughter who lives the title role in the film - has no talent at all." Following publication, Bandeira denied the claim, claiming that the publication was distorted.
